Teacher, Study and Discussion Guides for Life As We Knew It, The Dead And The Gone, and This World We Live In

While many of the following links are available on the side of the blog, I thought it might be helpful to have a single entry with links to various teacher's, discussion and study guides, book talks, and other useful things for Life As We KnewIt, The Dead And The Gone, and This World We Live In.

I'll try to keep this entry up to date, with new links as I find them.

Hi!After fighting with my son all weekend about reading this book for English, we decided to read a bit of it together until he got started. After the first few chapters, I was hooked! I have ordered the two other books online yesterday. I can't wait till they come in the mail!BTW--my son is enjoying the reading we are doing together...I think he will do well.

HI!!I JUST FINISHED THIS WORLD WE LIVE IN, WHEN I FIRST GOT IT, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WAS THE LAST BOOK. BUT AS SOON AS I STARTED READING IT, I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN. I'M GOING TO LOOK FOR THE FIRST 2 IN MY LIBRARY. ANYWAYS YOUR WORK IS AMAZING AND YOU SHOULD MAKE A 4TH BOOK!PLUS I EVEN CRIED!

I'm going to be teaching both LAWKI and D & G in my English 10 class and have been looking for some short stories, articles, video clips etc to supplement the novel, does anyone have some suggestions? Thanks
